Sven-Michael Wundenberg discusses the development of a reference architecture for the Learning Management System´s (LMS) selection-process aimed at the system´s implementation in a polytechnic-knowledge-transfer organization. The focus lies on the requirement engineering (RE) process´s quintessence based on research about standard RE-procedures and -approaches combined with LMS-basic knowledge and LMS-best-practice experiences. The resulting reference-architecture, particularly its frameworks and questionnaires, are tested prototypically in the real-life instance of a polytechnic school, the Technikerschule Augsburg (TA), and delivers outstanding results.
